About this book:
Hilarious, original, enchanting. This is urban teenage humour at its best.
At New Avalon, everyone has a personal fairy - some less desirable than others: Charlie's fairy ensures that she always has a car park, which seems to pale in comparison to Fiorenze's all-the-boys-like-you fairy.
From the author of the acclaimed Magic or Madness trilogy, this is a delightful story of friendships, fairies, and figuring out how to make your own magic.
"This vividly imagined story will charm readers." - Publishers Weekly.
"Charlie is totally likable, smart, and sarcastic, a perfectly self-involved, insecure teen. At its core, [How To Ditch Your Fairy] is a typical coming-of-age story, but the addition of the fairies, the slightly alternative setting, and the made-up slang make it much more. This "doos" (brilliant) fantasy will not be ditched." - School Library Journal.
"Justine Larbalestier has a super-cool writing fairy, and I am vastly jealous! Thoroughly entertaining, totally enchanting, wickedly funny, and 110% doos, How To Ditch Your Fairy had me grinning from page one (when I wasn't laughing out loud). And as soon as I can figure out how to do it I’m going to ask to swap fairies with Justine." - Libba Bray, New York Times bestselling author of A Great and Terrible Beauty
